There are 455,000 monthly average searches worldwide for League of Legends: Wild Rift.

Money.co.uk found that the second most anticipated game is Plants vs Zombies 3, with 167,700 monthly average searches, which promises to bring back classic playable characters along with brand new ones.

In third place is My Time at Portia, described as a delightful farming simulation and already available on other platforms, at 128,000 monthly average searches.

In fourth and fifth place, respectively, are Pokémon Sleep (126,800) and Pokémon Unite (99,600). Considering 2021 marks the 25th anniversary since the first Pokémon game, it is no surprise that these games are highly anticipated by fans.

Magic Awakened will follow a similar pattern to the 2018 game Hogwarts Mystery.
